Swimming

Swimming is a fun and relaxing way to engage in cardiovascular activity and improve strength in a low impact environment. For this reason, swimming is a great choice to improve fitness as it is an all-over body workout while building endurance and muscle strength. Melbourne Sports Centres MSAC houses world-class aquatic facilities (and even hosted the Commonwealth Games in 2006). We welcome all swimmers from babies who are learning to swim, adults looking to learn for the first time or improve their stoke all the way through to our new squad program for competitive swimmers.

MSAC has proudly helped thousands to swim with a goal of swimming for leisure (with confidence) or engaging in competitive swimming.
